A Thunderhead 289 appearance, pole barn garage, and a giant crowbar this video can't get any better. Love the content 🔥🥓🍻😂

That’s AWESOME to see an old friend back and I’m excited to see what happens in the future.

Kevin has the legendary triple sponsor segment for this video and honestly i dont mind because they are well done and allow us to have this amazing free content

The dynamic duo living closer together. One can only imagine the adventures and shenanigans that will be taking place.

9:15 I admit I had already an emotional day, but I got teary eyed for a second, when Luke came by. so glad to see you 2 back together. love it. do stuff together! looking forward.

I love you and Luke working together. So much knowledge and experience doing this oind of stuff. The technical know how is a large part of why i love your channel, as well as his. And Mook.. she is just a bundle of fun, and i love her quips and digs, it's also satisfying to see a woman getting down and dirty and making it work. Much love to you, thunderhead, dylan mccool, golden rust, the Junkyard Mook and Pole barn garage. He kills me, and gets it done on a budget that even I could afford. Cheers to you and yours in allmfuture endeavors.

That 318 went from mid to SPICY. Love to see Luke back. Y'all's chemistry is great.

You're genuinely an inspiration to me. I'm only 22 and have a very supportive family, they've helped me have my own little workshop where I work on cars of myself and friends, I've learned so many things about old vehicles, what to be weary of and how to work on them from you. Finding your channel was the best thing that has ever happened to me. You've inspired me to restore and love old cars. Thank you Kevin!

You can't call Dalton @polebarngarage AARP anymore. With his new haircut and shave he looks younger than Kevin now.

THIS, my friends, is one of only channels, where I'm happy to see sponsorships. It is incredibly cool and nice to see and realise that such a content and man getting stuff and money for things he loves so much. As well as me and everyone else on this channel. Kevin, you're a sweetheart. Keep doing and enjoying stuff you like

Wow, that motor teardown was so cool to watch! I've been waiting to see something like that on this channel for quite a while, and now that you have a shop instead of a gravel driveway it seems like a much easier place to do it. Thanks for sharing that process with us!

Excellent video taking the time to give tips and explaining etc.. Awesome to see Luke … and PBG! Only one missing was McCool😆 Sounds Badass! God Bless 😎

Now that you and Luke are near each other again. I think it's time for another weekend revival camping trip.

The look on Dalton's face when he starts pumping up the football....😂 2:55

Football dent Removal Was just genius Dalton and Kevin @Junkyard Digs @Pole Barn Garage

I had a very good friend a couple years ago that bought a 71 satellite Sebring Plus when he was fifteen, and he built that car. Built 440, fully built suspension, it was beautiful. He said, one summer, he went through four sets of tires on the rear. Too much fun. He sold it. But I got to ride in it multiple times. Those are beautiful cars

Hey Kevin…..as a rule of thumb while you have that engine out of the chassis now would be an excellent time to replace ALL of the freeze plugs. Even back when those Mopars were just a few years old they would eat up freeze plugs!

I came to the channel when Luke was more around all the time. I am completely stoked he will be back!

Camshaft install tip I was taught: Get a long piece of all-thread the same pitch as the cam sprocket bolt and use it like an extension to put the cam in, then just unscrew it.

great job on fixing up the Satellite!!! I always loved the "fuselage" styling of the 1971 models from Chrysler/Plymouth/Dodge. Richard Petty used that body style I believe for two racing seasons. My Dad's Duster was the same color. I miss my Dad, spend as much time as you can with your Father.

Pretty cool to see Luke back, your previous colab's made the best viewing. Keen to see some more :)

New episode! And a great new project. This one actually looks so restorable. I wonder if he tried that weird glue stick method, although with that kind of rigidity I doubt it would work that well. Leave those footballs inside and you get sort of an airbag. And even if that football popped, you get a cool hat or you can make shoes out of them ha ha.

Kevin, you are the go-to-guru when it comes to engine bay gymnastics, I absolutely love your super chill, calm and logical explanations of what we the audience is watching, again, I would watch your videos even if all you were doing was rebuilding brakes over and again. I have to ask though, with all of the crap that was coming out of the radiator, why not just go and pull it out and have it rodded and cleaned , especially with the engine already out? It could have only helped your cause, and, well it doesn't cost THAT much. Great video as always, and I can't wait for the next one!

Awesome seeing Our buddy Luke hanging out for a bit! I totally look forward to seeing you guys collab again! Dalton and JD are really fun to watch as well!

I saw the video when you pick this car up and boy it came a long way. You and Dalton make a great comedy team. I buy quite a few parts from summit racing including a double timing set for a 360 I put in a 97 Dodge last Summer. Still running great. Keep up the great work Kevin 👍✌️🇺🇲

I am so happy he is back. Can't wait for the collaborations

as much as I love seeing your father on the channel and him telling stories or giving advice to you or Mook on how to do something related to bodywork ... Dalton's way of doing things puts a smile on my face, just as much lol ... never heard of his channel until he was on JYD a few videos back, but now i am a regular viewer of his content

This video was such a nice treat. I absolutely adore PBG. He grew on me fast after the truck revival. And then seeing good ole Luke! I've been watching yall for years, and this was a really cool and unexpected reunion. I'm super excited to see him more. Keep up the good work you guys.

Love a good video with pole barn garage!

Kevin: points out that the freeze plug is leaking. Also Kevin: doesn't replace the freeze plugs.

I'm a huge fan, Luke being closer to you guys is awesome, New sponsors is also excellent.

Just what I wanted to see when I got home. Thanks for the great content, both of you! Ok wrote this comment before the video and I have to say I am absolutely pumped to be getting a video with Uncle Luke and Dalton. This is not something I knew I needed until I saw it. I know this is going to be one of my favorite episodes.

Oven cleaner works great! Used to use it on tractors before getting them ready to paint and it's cheaper!

Almost coordinated between the Monte Carlo over on PBG and this one. The JunkyardDigs Cinematic Universe is now claiming PBG in it lol

This video made my day. So great to see uncle Luke back in the hood. The paint buffed as good as it could get. And that 318 sounds so friggin good. Great work, much appreciated.

Just finished watching PBG!!! Now it's time for JYD!!!😁 Oh and I'm subscribed to both of you!!😜👍

HEY! Hell yes! Been looking forward to this!!

You have more self-control than I do. If I had gone so far as to have pulled that engine I couldn't have put it back without doing the rings ... bearings and gone through the valves. My OCDC would be killing me.

You guys are certainly a Dynamic Duo! I enjoy your antics together.

Am glad to see Kevin and Luke together again please do some work together

The clear paint is a good trick to help prevent all of the spotting you inevitably get with aluminum. I went ahead and painted mine the block color. Mimics a cast intake pretty well but I like the look of orange over the aluminum color. Like you said the trick is to just never have gas dripping down on the paint.

It is Cool to see you all Together!

Love seeing the progress you’ve made on the Satellite! Can’t wait to see the end results!

Dude! These kinds of collabs are great! I'm a big fan of all three channels.

Hell yea you guys rock! Love the content, down to earth, oh shit, polebarn? Just went up a notch..

Good guy’s, I really enjoy watching both of you guys. Have fun playing with the molar.

YAY Thunderhead! Dalton works great with you too! loving all the crew. Get Dylan McCool back in the picture too!

Genius. Two of ya working together and dropping a video on the same day. Not that you guys can do this all time, but great chemistry.

I'm glad to see Luke more! Has a cool name imo

The rebuild of the engine was really nice quality. Looks great man! Keep up the amazing content.

I'm so happy to see Luke again with you man, missed him so much even though he every now and then brings in his own content. Looking forward to see more colabs!

Looks Mint!

Dalton & Kevin is such a good match, really enjoying watching this!

Well that was much smoother than the other Mopar adventure! Looks great and good to see Luke back in the area.

Loving this build it Have a blast with it seeing friends get together and spin wrenches or explode things is always a fun watch

Yay the gang is getting back together. You and Luke have great chemistry.

As insnalely cool and exciting it is and would be for the original owner to get this car back, I weirdly feel like it would be so cool if he told Kevin to keep it and Kevin ended up dailying this thing. Also btw with winter tires these cars handle surprisingly well in winter. 😂😅 don't ask how I know.

That was a hell of an episode! Love Mopars n engine builds! Nooooice

These videos are amazing! I've learned so much....for example, the biggest take-away for me is when there are body issues on a car, I don't need to locate a body shop or acquire dent pulling tools....I need to quickly locate the nearest sporting goods store. Keep up the good work!

"Eat your heart out Chip Foose". I'm gonna be saying that the rest of my life.

Luke is a genius glad to see him around again and I thought it was funny Dalton standing over there like introducing your new girlfriend to your ex wife 😂

Keep the rebuilds coming. Revivals are fun but it great to see things really come together

Would this be the mysterious red/orange the General Lee is painted? Keep up the good work! Also, just for shits and giggles, I put a Ford V-10 on my HF engine stand with the hardware it come with, it held up, although I kept a chain hooked to the front with minimal slack and it hooked to the engine hoist. I will be changing the hardware now after your suggestion.

Thunderhead and Pole Barn visiting 😊 This is good stuff. More of this please

I'm glad Luke is back. Maybe we'll have more camping revivals. Those were the funnest!

Dude knows his engines. Love watching it because he explains it slowly enough I can follow along.

Can't belive it took me so ling to find this channel! Love it keep up the awesome work👍 love from the U.K 🇬🇧

Would love to see you do a older W116 or W123 Mercedes Diesel.

awesome guys! fun seeing this car come back to life and great seeing you and Luke hangin!

Your videos and content just keep getting better JYD-keep em coming!

Dalton is like me, knowledgeable but makes bad decisions :)

Hey kevin! i had a question? how come you don’t participate in any of the cross country car events or cleetus and cars?

great ad tie-in for the Shady Rays - smooth and actually watchable. good job man

Dude just discovered your channel and let me say I love it so far. Love it so much. Makes me want to do stuff like this. I've got a 360 magnum in my truck that's slowly getting worse and would love to rebuild it one day and this gives me some inspiration to do that

It's getting old Kevin,,, When are you going to give Mook a chance again,,,,,

The budget 318 rebuild takes me back to high school in the late 90s...I did one and so did a buddy. Those little motors were everywhere back then. Good stuff!

Great to see you n friends working on stuff.. looks like a blast!! Wanna thank you for the shady ray connect! Dude they hooked me up with like 4 pairs at half price!!

This world needs a lot more of Kevin and Dalton in their lives. You two remind me of me and a few of my buddies in our 20's throwing wrenches at cars. Ohhh the good ole days.

Never anticipated how well the paint would buff. Nice work

Love you’re videos. I’ve been slowly upgrading our 7x14 enclosed motorcycle trailer and the one thing I added that we enjoy the most is a Dometic awning. That one thing added so much more comfort when outside cooking and lounging.

Awesome to get Luke back in. Loved that video of you and Luke reviving that stuck in the mud MOPAR. That was hilarious!

Sounds awesome, great job on giving this engine a refresh!!!! i love the look of this car

So I’m gonna be doing an engine swap in my ranger this whole weekend and I’m starting right now since your videos over. Love the car and the channel and glad to see that Luke is back. You two are an awesome combo when filming revivals

I’m doing back to back engine builds this spring 302 with a b303 cam for my dads 68 fairlane and a 273 for my 69 dart so it’s nice seeing my favorite channels doing engine work for reassuring my confidence

This is like getting double the junkyard digs and Pole Barn garage content I love it

Kevin this video was soooo FUN! Seeing Pole Barn Garage and Thunderhead 289 on the channel and hearing that sweet 318 growl at the end was just the bomb!

Love when you completely pull the engine and make it pretty/functional again. Engine and the car looking great in blue + red.

Really enjoying this little build

That thing is starting to look great! Love the custom phone screen too 🤣 I have the same one.

Your the best mechanic youtuber to ever exist! I bought a hoodie from you and it is hecking comfortable!!!

Thanks for that last rev up with the camera down on the ground - music to my ears!

Hi great work, love 318s growing up in Australia when I was a kid the fastest drag racing rail used them,can't wait to see the new video cheers to you and moot .

LUKE!!! Man.. awesome to see him around again, my ol' trailer park shirt is almost worn out! Hope to see him more often this summer, YT needs more good guys around'

Whoa - love the collab, K-Dawgg. And always nice to see Luke - great to hear he'll be around now for various hi-jinx.

Awesome, these videos have me mesmerized! In the previous video I was wondering why you didn't work on the block first (the peripheral items are not likely to be show stoppers), but this video provided all the answers. I guess the secret is having a lot of experience with rebuilds/restorations which lets you size up the potential gotchas of a project like this. From the big coolant puddle in the previous video I speculated a broken water jacket, but fortunately not. A leaking freeze plug on a 318, imagine that! The color and luster brought to the surface by buffing and polishing is just astounding. Love that throaty engine roar near the end of the video - what a sweet sound! As a former 72 Challenger owner these videos really tug on my heart strings.

Thanks again Dalton, Kevin and thundered. You guys are awsome.👍👍

My experience is with leaky valves with old engines that has been sitting for a while is most of the time of rusty valve seats. Which you can get ride off quite quickly by giving the valves a bit more valve clearance, and after it has run for 20 min you can go back to stock clearance or what is advised for the type of cam. Nice to see you guys having a lot of fun together!

Can't wait to see the collaborations Luke and Kevin are the dream team. I truly can't explain how excited I am to see you guys back together.

I always get excited when Junkyard Digs uploads!
